This watch still works!!



LOL! I have not strapped this on in a few weeks, but I checked it on time.gov and it was averaging +1 sec a day. I put it on to feel a bit of metal on my wrist for awhile. Feels great and looks good too.
I did just switch straps on both the Pannies though, and am gonna wear the chrono again tomorrow. Maybe.

That one does look good too. Not quite a Pan though.
I haven't worn my sub for a while either. Yesterday the PR got used up & it's just sitting there waiting for me to wake it back up.

Thanks guys, I broke down and wore it today. One thing about this one that the other Rolex sport models didn't have, was this one never feels small on the wrist. I am pretty sure it is because of the lugs and sitting flatter, but there is no adjustment period.

I did switch to the 162 as soon as I got home though.
